TT Paplane is a squared-looking display sans serif. Its name, Paplane, comes from the phrase “paper plane.” This embodies the core idea of our font: the logic of letters is built in a way that makes them look like they are folded from a paper strip. So, this sans serif stands out for its squared forms, 45-degree cuts, flowing outer contours, and asymmetrical smoothing of stroke ends. A playful feel of the font is achieved by varying proportions of lowercase and uppercase characters. Other captivating details include the drops in the Cyrillic alphabet, the forms of the letter “i” and the Cyrillic letter “т,” the tails of “ц” and “щ,” and the serifs of the letters “i” and “l”. TT Paplane includes two font styles with different aesthetics: Regular and Thin. The Regular style is low-contrast and more paper-looking. The Thin style, in turn, features reverse contrast while having the same glyph forms, making the font’s design look like a barcode in use. Uppercase characters in both font styles are noticeably narrower than lowercase, and the letter proportions are closer to monospaced. In addition, the typeface includes a variable font with a weight variation axis. [typetype.org]
